If we had half dozen men with US
as good boomers as the Advance. We
think we wonld have had one or two
more roads aud y few factories by this
time.-Worthington Advance.
The Gazette admits that the Ad
vance is a boomer, and agrees with the
last paragraph. But Bro. Miller must
agree with us that it is neither wise
nor practical to build railroads on pa
per or lin the air." Balloons are al
right for aerial navigation; wind is
good for paper railroads. But 1t takes
enterprise, pluck and money for towns
to secure railroads. unless such towns
are on direct line between the termi
nj of the road.-Slayton Gazette.
All true enough. But all railroads
originate first in the mind" They
then are built on ''paper' and afte,
that they materialize into graded
and ironed road with trains running
You know these working, practical
fellows who are always undertaking
talk, only do half the work. The Other
half, the first half. the hardest half, j:
done by those fellows who have the
brains to plan roads, build them or
paper and set them going, so that these
very practical, business-like men OF
profound and far-reaching muscle, CAR
get at it with pick and shovel. The
first half is done by brains; the last
half by muscle and mule teams.
No. don't underrate railroads on
''paper" or ''in the air." for there can
be no railroad on the ground unless it
be first "in the air,' any more than
there can be shower Of rain on the
ground unless it be first "in the air"

VANCE for publication:
A DISCOVERY
Onions inhaled cause sleep, rest and
refreshment. The soldier on his march
aud the exhausted iron worker get
great strength from eating the onion.
Tie fresh onion around the neck and
bruise it to make its odor thorough and
you secure sound sleep from its night
